“Be yourself, be yourself radically” …love this thank you!
The pleasure is all mine!
"Figure out who you are and then do it on purpose" --Dolly Parton :)
I think consistency is not the purpose, but the end result, but it can take a lot of experimentation. Consistency is almost automatic because the artist is the constant.
As long as we are breathing.
You're spot on! If the artist is conscious of what they are doing, the consistency will be a natural result of their work-as was the case with almost all the artists from this list. However, for the ones that struggle with maintaining consistency or recognizability, and can often be helpful to reflect on these strategies and implement them consciously, without forcing things, of course. Thank you for your excellent contribution! Have a great day
Exactly. You can't make style up, it has to naturally evolve. Consistency comes only with experience, can't fake that either.
I AGREE.
Very good
Love that Perrier is unimpressed. She reminds us to be consistently present in our work, but not take the world too seriously. ♥️🐈
Fabulous advice. I have been a full time artist for about 6 years and finding my style is still a journey.
Congratulations! It certainly is; it keeps us going back to the studio to discover more. have a great day!
Julien Delagrange- As an inexperienced person in the art world, I find that your attention to detail coupled with your incredible presentation skills truly make learning about this subject a pleasurable experience. In that regard, I want to thank you for sharing your valuable knowledge, insight and experience with the community as it underlines the importance of how impactful the art world is in our lives. I wish you the very best and look forward to your next chapter soon.
Thank you for those most kind words, I appreciate it. The pleasure is all mine, glad to hear you enjoyed the video. Cheers! Julien
Absolutely agree. I am a mid career, award winning artist and i am finding most of the material extremely valuable and encouraging. High standards here. 😊
Thank you for your most valuable content. This video especially came at the right moment. Subbed instantly!
there are artists who absolutely refuse the disciplines you listed but you give every reason why they are absolutely necessary, useful and practical. Thank you for your content. personally, I'm getting better by simply considering that you are correct and putting it into practical use in my own work.
I simply can't thank you enough for all of your precious advices. I usually don't comment on videos but this is Genius. Please keep sharing your precious knowledge! I subscribed.
I really enjoyed that, thorough yet concise enough. Can't wait to see more. Keep it up!
Thank you so much! More to come :)
The best examples when talking about the idea of consistency in art. Bravo.
Thank you so much 🙏Have a great day!
Once again great containt! As I am seriously focussed on my art career now I found your videos really precious and helpful. Your KZhead channel is one of the best when it comes to art.
In my opinion there is nothing left to add, nor should anything be taken out. I’m on a mission to watch this 100 times before further comment. This is my second time 98 more to go…
Hi Daniel, that's tremendous. Thank you so much for tuning in and enjoy the upcoming 98 plays of the video :-) thanks 🙏
Love your channel! Thank you for all this knowledge.
The pleasure is all mine, thank you so much for tuning in!
Not me looking into this topic for years. And turns out the answer was here! Thank you very much for the work that you do on this channel, not also is helpful, insightful even but inspiring
Very well put together material, thank You! The knowledge you're sharing is valuable and helps me to think clearer about my own art practice. Good work!
That's great to hear! The pleasure is all mine and wishing you all the best!
Amazing episode. So well presented and exemplified. Loved the intermezzo too 😍
Thank you so much 🙏 Yes, the intermezzo is without any doubt the highlight of the video 😅 Greetings from us both!
This was a truly inspiring and thought provoking exploration of each form. Thank you so much. I found this at exactly the right time.
It’s astonishing this channel doesn’t have more followers. The quality of content, thorough discussion of concept and professionalism garners a much higher following. It also brings to question You Tubes discernment. I stumbled upon it without it having ever been recommended. Anyone truly desiring success in the artworld round benefit from the iniwk😢so freely given on this channel.
Great lecture so clear and well broken down into the relevant sections with examples. I think this talk alone would make a great book. Thank you so much for this. Well researched and concisely delivered. As an artist it is so easy to forget these core principles over time and just drift. Making art requires a rare combination of discipline, freedom, experimentation, focus and attention to detail. So many balls to juggle at the same time !
Thank you for tuning in and for taking the time to write these most kind words; I appreciate it! You're spot on when it comes to the different balls one has to juggle to create good art. Wishing you all the best!
Thank you for this . I found it extremely helpful on my journey to "my" art. Feeling free and following my muse.
OMG what an awesome video! Full of great advices for up&coming artists!
Thank you so much 🙏 Have a great day!
Thanks, Julien. Everytime I watch one of your videos I learn something new. In fact several new things.
That's wonderful to hear! Thank you for tuning in and stay in touch 🙌
Thank you so much for your excellent lecture!👏🏻 It is well thought out & presented, with clear examples & wise suggestions. I have only very recently discovered your videos & channel, & as a lapsed artist I feel greatly inspired & encouraged by your posts. 🤩 Wonderful!🎉
That's tremendous! Go for it, and have a great day!
Wow That's a full class. Thank you!
This was incredible. You brought me back to think about what is important in my art. Thank you, this helped❤️😊
The pleasure is all mine 🙌 Wishing you all the best!
I am glad you mentioned Richter; I absolutely LOVE Richter not only because his insane painting ability but also because he didn't buy into the capitalist expectation of "consistency" that galleries push forward, and still became immensely successful and recognized. He became an expert of his medium and explored all the varieties of human emotion while exploring the capabilities of his medium. His process in itself is art: human, honest, and beautiful.
Spot on! Love the key words here; human, honest, and beautiful.
Richter ... holding the flag of figuration high, over decades when „painting was declared dead“ even in general, let alone figuration. Making sure to always use huge enough conceptional „quotation marks“, he smuggled in everything imagineable, charming and cheeky like a courts jester.
Excellent presentation, truly clear and sharp for achieve higher level of persistence
Hi Tasri, thank you so much for tuning in and your most kind words.
The presentation was exceptional, offering a clear and precise approach to attain a higher level of perseverance.
Thank you so much 🙏🙌
Wonderful presentation. INTENTION is spot on throughout our careers, ... what gets us ticking! Thanks
Hi Deb, thank you so much for tuning in. You're absolutely right. Wishing you all the best!
I heartily agree that consistency and technical skills are key elements of quality in the arts. I take pride in giving my ideas to an open audience. Thanks for your excellent presentations of some difficult concepts. We, your audience, are better for it.
Hi there, thank you for tuning in and your most kind words. I appreciate it! Greetings from Belgium
Wonderful food for thought as I continue my artistic journey of self discovery. ❤
Hi Graham, I trust you have been doing well. Enjoy the journey! 🙌💪
I stumbled across your channel during my constant search for insight into creating abstract art. I stopped this video at 7minutes just shaking my head in agreement. I struggle, struggle so much with finding consistency and looking for a unique "voice" of who I am and what is my art. I've learned to have large containers of gesso handy to destroy whatever weak painting I've come up with. It's a lot of experimentation.
I have done that to, putting gesso over something I am not happy with... 😊 and made it fabulous.
Awesome channel and videos! Thanks!!
The pleasure is all mine, thank you for tuning in!
Thank you for sharing great information and advice...
Hi Grozda, the pleasure is all mine! Thank you for watching 🙏
This is very helpful, nice to realize I do some of these things naturally, at the same time, I've really learned some new important details. Thank you.
That's great to hear. Wishing you all the best and thank you for tuning in!
Thank you very much for this video really love your channel has helped me a lot in my journey as an artist
That's great to hear! The pleasure is all mine; thank you for following the channel and more to come :-) Wishing you all the best!
Thank you for this great and helpful video!
Thank you so much, the pleasure is all mine.
Again a visit to you here and again reaffirming. An artist talent is nothing with out further discovery. Always imagining the image through exploration, Not easy without a thorough understanding of the original start the beginning must be fully realized. Beyond many impossible for most, certainly the artist here are inspiring. Thank you.
Spot on as always! Thank you Daniel 🙌
a great piece of research presented in a very informative and logical way…with great examples to illustrate. these points you make are necessary for any serious artist and those who do not take the time and effort to use them as the core of work are lost. you are a great educator sir….please continue in a venue that appreciates you. the comments would indicate this is not it. i continue to follow you with interest. thank you
Dear Patrica, thank you for your most kind words-I really appreciate it. Concerning the comments, the overall balance is positive but there are indeed some very rude and unnecessary comments as well, most often people who don't like contemporary art, but well, in the end this is a contemporary art channel... But I guess that's the nature of this platform, and I am not making these videos for them. Thank you once more and wishing you a great day!
Wow, covering floor with ultramarine blue paint or a bad painting upside down! So brilliant, so radical!!!
Thank you for this pertinent reminder to consider the intention as a source of the ecosystem in Art!
The intention is indeed crucial in art. Thank you for watching!
Amazing, thanks so much!
just found you.... excellent topics and helpful advice. thank you.
Most welcome! Thank you for tuning in
Like all of your videos. Thank you so much.
Very helpful advice, thank you
The pleasure is all mine, thank you for tuning in!
Great video, i like the fact that you broke down each style, explained them well and gave some examples for all of them. Expecting more videos from you, wishing you all the best bro 🙏
Hi there, big thanks for your words of appreciation. Thank you for tuning in and wishing you all the best! More to come 🙌
Thank you Julien for your terrific videos. Very useful information. 👍💗💗❤
The pleasure is all mine, thank you for tuning in 🙌🙏
Conceptualising alternative conceptualisations - an awesome framework that neatly binds and presents for easy digestion an invaluable collection of insights. Thankyou so much for this remarkable piece of artistic leadership - 🙏
Agreed!
The pleasure is all mine; thank you so much for tuning in! Greetings from Perrier and myself from Belgium 👋🙏
How do you conceptualize conceptualisations? 😂 Long passage that has zero meqning.
I am sharing this with my artists friends. Valuable content!
That's great, thank you very much!
Thank you, very good. And, I was so glad when the dog finally moved, I was worried it was one of those taxidermy statements.
Not a taxidermy at all, just a bit lazy 😂Thank you for tuning in and greetings from us both!
@@contemporaryartissue I enjoyed hearing your take on all these issues. These are all things I've thought about as my painting habit has developed. over the years.
I met Nicolas Africano, when I was a student at the Art institute of Chicago.. I was working as an art mover, part time while being a student… I was highly praised by my teachers at the school, even told I was going to be a star one day… And when you hear that from the most senior painting teacher at the school in front of for the other students during a critique… It’s embarrassing and overwhelming… Yes, it gives you confidence but then you feel like you’re on the spot… So much pressure… I’m not saying this to brag… Because I’m struggling, not because of my work, because I’m not working… Because of the way, the art world has changed… And the way the art world is set up… Mainly because we have to fucking pay bills really… I haven’t worked in more than 20 years because of this… The world is saturated with a lot of art, most of it, not very good… People are making how to videos so they can tell people who have no talent how to paint abstract art? Are you fucking kidding me? I guess it’s easier to make money doing that because the people who watch it have no idea what they’re doing. And there are a lot more of those people anyway… More people with money and no idea, no taste. Anyway, when I saw his painting, which was about 10 x 10‘… It was muddy, brown, black and gray… Childlike stick figures with a few words underneath, neither good or bad, just plain, dull and boring and confusing… His sculptures, however, were very beautiful… So I asked him what inspired you to do these paintings… I didn’t want to insult him I was at his studio… He said they pay me $100,000… So basically it’s about money because I don’t think he really likes those paintings, he found a little niche, fooled some people into believing it’s worth it… And that’s what happens in the world… Sometimes these critics and galleries, they turn crap into gold, because they say so… and some pseudo intellectuals but it..And a lot of famous artist, who I find extremely boring, and some of it it’s not really painting, but graphic design… have become very successful because of what other people say, people who I don’t trust anyway… They’re not artists, they’re just critics, basically… So why do we have to follow what they say? The artists should control that not the critics and galleries… What the fuck do they know? a certain style of art never has to end because it always changes even though it has similar qualities… Some galleries were telling me. Oh, that was already done before we want to do something different… Everything has been done before… But now since you have to change materials, let’s see, I’m going to use shit and piss this time or maybe catchup and mustard… or cut a dog in half..And I’ll do a painting on toast or drywall with some pieces of paper plates in it… Different just to be different is not making art. Different to provoke or to alienate, or shock is not making art… My art, what I care about is beauty, even frightening and depressing can be beautiful… I don’t care about provoking or shocking people… That doesn’t mean it’s art, that’s just a statement… It’s more of a philosophical idea… contemporary art is very alienating to me… Some of it’s nice, but most of it is just alienating… So why is that worthy of our attention? Anyway… You can see I’m frustrated because I don’t always understand what’s going on even as an artist myself, it’s even more confusing… … But like I said, I think Artist should have more control of what we do and what is art instead of critics and gallery owners..
I can see your frustration. Much warranted.
Thanks for your analysis and description without prescription for "correctness".
Thank you very much for all your videos that I watch every time. Indeed, art must remain free but have a long-term vision (production of series) at the same time it is necessary to create ruptures, there must be a process of evolution, it is the balance to be found and it is the most complex part. Between freedom, obsession, and consistency. It seems to me that the style or the point of attachment which makes it possible to immediately recognize the work of an artist results from this balance. Thanks again. Ps: your dog is just as wise as he is beautiful :) lucy Einna.
Dear Lucy, thank you so much for watching our videos. I really appreciate it! Yes, you're spot on. Ruptures, twists, revisiting older motifs, creating a web of developments. Greetings from both of us from Belgium and have a great day
@@contemporaryartissue i send you my best ☀️
Your dog keeps yawning. Is the dog bored with what you're saying?
Indeed, style and consistency develops over time, as the artist matures in his/her skill and depth of vision. Can't fake or make that up, it evolves naturally through striving for perfection creating thousands of paintings before anything decent emerges.
I love your presentations. They are so well curated…. That being said, this video being used to encourage us in developing style has highlighted many artists who do these very large installations….. how did they start? What were the early works that got them to the full fame of their mastery? It seems to me that it is only with the income through the more manageable works that they could get to the point of have the benefactors to provide the immense space, supplies and time to construct these larger than life installations.
Hi, thank you for commentating on these important pointers. I have only just found your channel and wonder if the pointers in the preceding video are followed how to move from local public gallery sales, to earning a good living by own artworks please? By the way I love how relaxed your dog is. Thanks and Regards Joe B
Amazing Amazing thank you so much
The pleasure is all mine! Thank you for tuning in 🙏
excellent analysis!
Thank you 🙏
This was a great video. Thank you
Big thanks! Have a great day
Wonderful video work Julien ! thanks ! i m on my way ..
Tremendous! The pleasure is all mine, wishing you all the best 🙌
I am so inspired by this, you and your dog, lol...thank you!
She's the best! Thank you for tuning in and wishing you all the best!
Really nice. I was looking for this type of info. I have two very different styles. Both pop art. One is a comic book type of aesthetic similar to warhol and lichtenstein. And the other is very inspired by keith harring. They are similar in themes i potrait but very different in visuals. I have a lot of doubts on how to present them in a consistent way. Thanks for the video!
Try to implement these strategies, and you'll manage to combine them for sure. Wishing you all the best!
I like to do different things and I love each one of them for their beauty.
Always a finding that proceeds organically never an adaptation. Ever evolving toward pure idea. That this idea lives in each artist waiting to be realized.Ideas are our compass they point the way. Wonderful how your video’s push me to think about these things. Thank you CAI❗️Keep ‘em coming always looking forward to your next while reviewing the others.
Hi Daniel, will do 💪 Thank you for your support!
No artist that made his or her own style ever watched a video on how to make his own style. Period.
True. But it's still helpfull advice anyway.
This is solid. Love the dog.
Thank you for your great ideas about art . It'll be useful for my work as a self- taught painter. 🎉
That's excellent, go for it! Thank you for tuning in and wishing you all the best.
This is a super consistent KZhead channel because of the very cute dog appearing in each episode. I'm actually watching this channel because I want to watch the dog and want to see it yawn
I believe most people are 😂
Love your KZhead videos. ❤❤❤
Thank you so much for following the channel 🙏
Great advice and examples.
Thank you!
I'm still developing my consistency. I took your advice and stopped posting finished work. while i try some new things. I love the final results of the new style, but need to produce it without the method i'm using, which uses collage. i want to do it with just paint.
Sounds exciting; go for it! Working in a specific series helps tremendously here. Revisiting the same composition, concept, idea, color palette, or process in multiple ways, with subtle changes between each piece to evaluate the results. Wishing you all the best!
just wow !!
Go for it! 💪
one more splendid video
Gerhard Richter is one of my favorites because of his ability to adapt and evolve… I don’t like all of his work, but I appreciate all of his work… But I’m a painter, I will stick to painting on whatever surface I don’t care… Picasso is my model… He always evolved, even though he might do a few things in the same manner… They were always pretty different… Hopefully I can find my way
Thank you.
The pleasure is all mine!
Thanks!
Well I do prefer making my own inks, and also sometimes my own pens and brushes. Right now trying to return to what used to inspire me before switching to graphic novels, and then intigrating this into a consistent comic strip motif. What a lot of comic artists dont think about when inking is texture of ink.
very thorough
Thank you Carol 🙏
Always on point with the artist-related advice! However, I don't feel there is anything wrong with acrylic straight from the tube (some mixing is always nice) to a pre-stretched canvas, sometimes you just want to rip and get right into it. I do feel that as an artist you are a material scientist and should always be playing with different ways to leave marks. Style is a by-product of creating a ton of work. It is something that comes out naturally. Just my thoughts, thanks again for sharing!
Terrific! Duchamp X A.I.
Do you have exercises to help us discover this for ourselves
Great question, I am currently working on a couple methods to achieve this. Hopefully, I can share them in the foreseeable future. So stay tuned 😁
Most of my paintings were done from my intuition, from guts filling, and by the influence of the German expressionist, and others famous Artists ,also came to me by Muza that I hade, I always deals with sosaiety, with people, I also painted abstract, i have in my studio 250 paintings, I started to paint in school, when I was 7 years. I am multi talented, I makes also sculptures, and I written poetry, and printed it in book, also, I play 4 years on cello. I have a nice record, I made 9 hexebition, and sales aleady 22 paintings, now I’m ready to selling the rest of my collection. I had resived many compliments on my paintings. And I ready to let them “go”. I learned in the art organization, with prof. John Bayl, 720 Academic hours, in 6 years. Thanks, ika
That's true in being yourself in your artwork.
Absolutely!
Merci
Thank you. You made some excellent points. I did not hear you mention beauty or aesthetics and I would appreciate your response. I am also confused by the trend which views art as a political or moral undertaking. One would think we have moved on from the Middle Ages. Why should art in fact be so personal? Are we, as a collective, so fascinated by an individuals' trauma that it is enough to justify a work as art? Is that a good enough reason to instigate a practice of art? I look forward to comments and am sincerely interested in debate.
Hi there Lena, thank you for your interesting question and sharing your thoughts. When it comes to beauty-this is something very subjective of course so it is difficult to present an art scientific disquisition on this matter, although it could be interesting to take on the philosophical history of aesthetics; the question "what is beauty." But before we get lost into this sophistic debate, your second question is also very valid-why does it need to be political or personal and is this a justification for it to be art. This reminds me of lively discussion I had when I was at university when I was arguing something similar. Art can be political, but doing something political does not mean it is art-or good art. First, the intention of the artist determines if it qualifies as art. However, if something is intended as art, it does not mean it is good art. For instance, Banksy is very political but personally think it is a bit too flat and predictable, so I feel it is more propaganda than art by times. But when there are numerous elements in play; aesthetics, a personal narrative, a unique vision and development, engaging in a dialogue with art history and your contemporaries; the intention becomes reinforced by all these things, making the piece a conversation piece and increasing its quality as an artwork. Very interesting topic!
@@contemporaryartissue Thank you for responding and points well taken. Endless notions to think about and discuss. I understand your spherical response re: numerous elements at play. How interesting it would be to actually debate some of these points live.!
Fine arts or decorative design. Pick one category, you can't fit in both. Meaning OR beauty. Not both.
14:40 just made this great video the best video.
Absolutely! I believe she's the reason for at least 90% of the subscribers here 😅Thank you for tuning in!
It was very insightful and I just created a new unique and consistent art style! The most amazing one. INVISIBLE ART. Introducing the enigmatic realm of "Invisible Art," a groundbreaking artistic movement that challenges conventional perceptions of art by embracing the absence of physical and digital content. Within this revolutionary style, artists craft immersive experiences that transcend tangible boundaries, inviting viewers to explore the unseen dimensions of existence. Guided by the power of imagination, these visionary creators harness intangible elements such as emotions, concepts, and sensations to provoke thought and evoke profound introspection. By shattering traditional expectations, Invisible Art unveils a new frontier where art becomes an ethereal manifestation of the intangible, inviting viewers to engage with the invisible threads that connect us all. (by chat gpt) Now, how can I sell these invisible art pieces?
😂 I must say I expected a more original parody of art style. Nevertheless, the dematerialization of art has been very interesting since the 1960s. The immaterial, the elusive, the invisible, and so on are very important and intriguing. I invite you to watch an Ann Veronica Janssens documentary with an open mind on KZhead. Enjoy!
sorry the comments are really very good… it appears you do indeed have an appreciative audience. Cheers❤
Yes, thank you ❤️ !
Consistency is not a must must forever, think of John Baldessary or Rosemarie Trockel. They were jumping, but great with everything their hands werw touching. Authentecity is my greater goal, knowing who I am, what I like, what I want to present and then presenting it with confidence.
Is it harder to get the same recognition and status in the art world if one is working in different mediums, e.g. both painting, sculpture and collage work, compared to just being a painter? Does it depend on the amount of consistency yet variability that the artist brings forth in the relationship between the different mediums and their content?
Hi Magnus, thank you for tuning in. At first it could indeed by a bit more tricky. However, versatility and a multidisciplinary practice are valued strongly. Almost all established artists have taken on various media these days. When it comes to your second question, there is no fixed formula here. It depends on the quality in the first place; the way it takes shape and relates from medium to medium is for the artist to decide, without any strict regulations. However, it needs to make sense one way or the other-conceptually or visually. Have a great day!
You need ONE medium with very clear style in it, different from everyone else! If you do both landscape watercolour and portraits, you are all over the place, inconsistent АF. Stick to ONE common theme in ONE medium.
consistency feels like nature of a flower that breaks free from concrete of uncertainty
Great analogy!
The couch!!!!!
I love the doggie. She listens so intensely to daddy. An art expert by now.
The doggie is the best! Probably the reason for 90% of the subscribers 😅
Hello my question is can añ artist maltitask two mediam??? Can I do pencil work and also painting???
Absolutely! Most established artists do. Versatility is always a plus, but make sure that there is a connection between both.
I think the presentation is good, but personally I don't seem to understand what all other who commented seems to understand, since there are very difficult to find real buty in the shown art pieces. Often I just find it depressing to watch any installations. Last time I visited Lousiana art exibition in Denmark I just found it a very boring experience, but I had to be patient since I was there together with friends who seemed to enjoy what they saw. Some years ago I visited the watercolor muséum in Skärhamn i Sweden and I found the exitbition very interesting. The hanging of Emil Nolde's art was exqisite and very beautiful. A year later, when I visited Louisiana in Denmark they showed the same art, but had hanged it very tight in a big square, which made it impossible to enjoy the art. Once when I visited the muséum of Dalsland (a district in Sweden) they showed art of the Swedish professor Arne Isacsson, and his art is what I call art. I saw a picture from an art exibition where a bunch of people are staring on thre enormus pictures of white canvases' and feel just faberglasted about what it is all about!
your dog is moving art, those expressions on her face, just great. rather watch her than 99 percent of paintings in museums.
Interesting
Thank you for tuning in!
What are ur soarces of these info How do you know all this??
What is the name of the artist mentioned just after Richard Serra? Fred...?
Fred Sandback-great artist!
does anybody, notice how peacefully the dog is sleeping ?
She's a pro when it comes to taking naps 😂 Thank you for tuning in!
If an artist progresses and develops a new collection of work which is quite different to the past work, in your view, should the past work be hidden from view on instagram?
